Stormregion's RTS franchise set to make an appearance on next-gen consoles while PC gamers experience the Cold War...
In a joint statement German publisher 10Tacle and Hungarian developers Stormregion have confirmed plans to bring the RTS series Codename: Panzers to Xbox 360 and PlayStation3, together with portable versions on Nintendo DS and PSP.
